Mama Fuzz & the babies

[ChickyWhicky]

Just doing a quick thread for Mama Fuzz that I can update. She hatched 5 babies this weekend! 4 are doing well, 1 was not off to a great start. She left the 1 up in the nest box and I honestly thought it had already passed... Went to remove it and it squirmed just a little. Took it inside, wrapped it up and warmed with blow dryer. After awhile it started to move around, open eyes and finally start chirping. Took it back out to Mama and tucked it under her. That happened this afternoon and I didnt lift her up at night time to check so not sure what will happen. Going to let Mama do her thing. Cant wait to see what mixes we have, no idea whos babies they are. Looks like there are 3 mostly black and 2 reds. Mixed flock and 2 roos.... Its anybodies guess.
Tried to grab some pics today, hoping to get better ones soon! They are so stinkin CUTE!

Just-hatched babies are the absolute cutest! Congratulations, and I hope the little one is ok.

She's such a good mama (and you are, too, for saving the red one!)!

The babies are a week old today! They are SO STINKIN CUTE! Mama Fuzz is doing a good job.
I just love the little yellow one... All these black chicks and 1 ray of yellow fluffy sunshine.

Easy to tell her from the others, too!
